A fast, scalable, and memory-efficient memory allocator
Description
The Hoard memory allocator is a fast, scalable, and memory-efficient memory
allocator. It runs on a variety of platforms, including Linux, Solaris, and
Windows. Hoard is a drop-in replacement for malloc() that can dramatically
improve application performance, especially for multithreaded programs running
on multiprocessors. No change to your source is necessary. Just link it in or
set just one environment variable, e.g.:
LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/libhoard.so:/usr/lib/libdl.so"
